I freaking love British Chinese Takeaway chilli beef. Strips of beef, deep fried and coated in spicy sticky sauce. However, it’s not great for the waistline, and it’s always a little underwhelming.
I love chicken soups, and I thought I’d written about various different styles here over the years but it turns out ( only the once ) but on a cold and miserable Sunday evening, having driven for 12 hours out of the previous 36, I was craving comfort food and the idea of adding dumpling (the stodgy kind, not the Asian kind) appealed.
